[Verse 1]
All your bitterness and lies
Sting like tears in my eyes
And a thousand lovesick tunes
Won't wash away the wounds from my mind
You've been seen around, you're a news sensation
You got a better deal and you took his invitation
You've been licking his stamps and taking his dictation
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh but mercy, we used to love all day and drive all night
Oh mercy, jealousy used to whet your appetite
Oh mercy, we were low as dogs and high as kites
[Chorus]
Why must I plead with you, darling?
Why must I plead with you, darling?
I say, why must I plead with you, darling
For what's already mine?
[Verse 2]
My friends are indiscreet
And I sing myself to sleep
I don't mind thе red wine
Or the pickup linе as long as it's cheap
I ask you what's what, and you say that I'm all yours
I ask who your friend is, and you say it's Santa Claus
I ask you to come home, you say you're tired of being indoors
All your bitterness and lies
Sting like tears in my eyes
And a thousand lovesick tunes
Won't wash away the wounds from my mind
You've been seen around, you're a news sensation
You got a better deal and you took his invitation
You've been licking his stamps and taking his dictation
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh but mercy, we used to love all day and drive all night
Oh mercy, jealousy used to whet your appetite
Oh mercy, we were low as dogs and high as kites
[Chorus]
Why must I plead with you, darling?
Why must I plead with you, darling?
I say, why must I plead with you, darling
For what's already mine?
[Verse 2]
My friends are indiscreet
And I sing myself to sleep
I don't mind thе red wine
Or the pickup linе as long as it's cheap
I ask you what's what, and you say that I'm all yours
I ask who your friend is, and you say it's Santa Claus
I ask you to come home, you say you're tired of being indoors
